What I meant by that statement is simply this. Living your life in the past, and letting those mistakes control you, is a sure way of dragging yourself down.

I think everyone can agree with that.

But having regrets doesn't mean that a person is living in the past and letting those mistakes control him or her.

If someone were to ask me if I have regrets, I would answer "yes." But if the person asked me if I think about those regrets, I would way "very rarely and when I do, I quickly dismiss them and move on."

Besides, the only way one can learn from one's mistakes and not repeat them is to (at some level) remember them. Totally forgetting our mistakes is a sure way to repeat them.

I put these Daily Motivators in our club forum each day and since Ralph can say things so much better I use his.

Would you all enjoy these in the main forum? I understand if you do not want them. We all have our own opinions on these things, as we should, because that is how we were made. It would be pretty boring if we were all the same. :-)
